Safety features of your vehicle
In a slant or angled collision, theforce of impact may direct the
occupants in a direction where the
air bags would not be able to pro-
vide any additional benefit, and
thus the sensors may not deploy
any air bags. Just before impact, drivers often
brake heavily. Such heavy braking
lowers the front portion of the vehi-
cle causing it to “ride” under a vehi-
cle with a higher ground clearance.
Air bags may not inflate in this
“under-ride” situation because
deceleration forces that are detect-
ed by sensors may be significantly
replaced by such “under-ride” colli-
sions. Front air bags may not inflate in
rollover accidents because front air
bag deployment would not provide
additional occupant protection.
However, side and curtain air bags
may inflate when the vehicle is
rolled over.

Brake operation
In an emergency situation, the
braking system enters in ready sta-
tus for prompt reaction upon the
driver depressing the brake pedal.
FCA system provides additional braking power for optimum braking
performance when the driver
depresses the brake pedal.
The braking control is automatical- ly deactivated when the driver
sharply depresses the accelerator
pedal, or when the driver abruptly
turns the steering wheel.
The braking control is automatical- ly canceled when risk factors dis-
appear.
FCA system front radar sensor
In order for FCA system to operate
properly, always make sure the sen-
sor or sensor cover is clean and free
of dirt, snow, and debris. Dirt, snow,
or foreign substances on the lens
may adversely affect the sensing
performance of the sensor.
WARNING
FCA system logic operates
within certain parameters, such
as the distance from the vehicle
ahead, the speed of the vehicle
ahead, and the driver's vehicle
speed. Certain conditions such
as inclement weather, road con-
ditions, and systems limitations
may affect the operation of the
FCA system.
WARNING
FCA system braking control
cannot completely stop the
vehicle nor avoid all collisions.
The driver should hold the
responsibility to drive safely
and control the vehicle.
WARNING
Never deliberately drive danger-
ously to activate the system.
CAUTION
The driver should always exer-cise caution when operatingthe vehicle, even though there isno warning message or warningalarm.

Driving your vehicle
Limitation of the system
FCA system is designed to monitor
the vehicle ahead through radar sig-
nals to warn the driver that a collision
is imminent, and if necessary, apply
emergency braking. In certain situa-
tions, the radar sensor may not be
able to detect the vehicle ahead. In
these cases, FCA system may not
operate. The driver must pay careful
attention in the following situations
where FCA operation may be limited:(Continued)
The brake control may beinsufficient, possibly causing
a collision, if a vehicle in front
abruptly stops. Always pay
extreme caution.
Occupants may get injured, if the vehicle abruptly stops by
activated FCA system. Pay
extreme caution.WARNING
FCA system operates only todetect vehicles in front of the
vehicle.
FCA system does not operate when the vehicle is in reverse.
FCA system is not designed to detect other objects on the
road.
FCA system does not detect cross traffic vehicles that are
approaching.
FCA system cannot detect the driver approaching the side
view of a parked vehicle (for
example on a dead end
street.)
In these cases, you must main-
tain a safe braking distance,
and if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce the driv-
ing speed in order to maintain a
safe distance.

Detecting vehicles
The sensor may be limited when:
• The radar sensor is blocked with a
foreign object or debris
Inclement weather such as heavy rain or snow obscures the field of
view of the radar sensor
There is interference by electro- magnetic waves
There is severe irregular reflection from the radar sensor
The radar sensor recognition is limited
The vehicle in front is too small to be detected (for example a motor-
cycle, etc.)
The preceding vehicle is a special purpose vehicle or a special shape
of cargo loaded truck, or a trailer.
The vehicle in front is driving errat- ically
The vehicle is on unpaved or uneven rough surfaces, or roads
with sudden gradient changes
The vehicle is moving under ground level or inside a building The vehicle is driven near areas
containing metal substances such
as a construction zone, railroad,
etc.
The sensor recognition is suddenly changed after passing a speed
bump.
The vehicle is severely vibrating or shaking.
The preceding vehicle is turning at a roundabout.
The radar or sensor cover has been damaged.
The vehicle is passing a tunnel, a tollgate, or a partially paved road.
The radar sensor’s recognition is over its limitation. - Driving on a curve
FCA system performance may be
limited while driving on a curve. FCA
system may not recognize the vehi-
cle in front even if in the same lane.
It may produce the warning message
and the warning alarm prematurely,
or it may not produce the warning
message or the warning alarm at all.
When driving on a curve, exercise
caution, maintain a safe braking dis-
tance, and if necessary, depress the
brake pedal to reduce your driving
speed in order to maintain a safe dis-
tance.

✽ ✽NOTICE
In some instances, FCA system may
be canceled when subjected to elec-
tromagnetic interference.
WARNING - Testing FCA
system
The FCA system may not oper-
ate in certain situations.
Therefore, never test the opera-
tion of the FCA system using a
person or object, as doing so
may cause severe injury or
even death.
WARNING - FCA system
and Towing
Cancel FCA system in the User
Settings on the LCD display,
before towing another vehicle.
While towing, the brake applica-
tion may adversely affect your
vehicle safety.
WARNING
Use extreme caution when the vehicle in front of you has
cargo that extends rearward
from the cab, or when the
vehicle in front of you has
higher ground clearance.
FCA system is designed to detect and monitor the vehicle
ahead through sensor recog-
nition. It is not designed to
detect bicycles, motorcycles,
or smaller wheeled objects
such as luggage bags, shop-
ping carts, or strollers.
When replacing or reinstalling of front bumper or radar, have
the vehicle inspected for the
system check by an author-
ized Kia dealer.

What to do in an emergency
18
7
You may not be able to identify a low
tire by simply looking at it. Always
use a good quality tire pressure
gauge to measure the tire's inflation
pressure. Please note that a tire that
is hot (from being driven) will have a
higher pressure measurement than a
tire that is cold (from sitting station-
ary for at least 3 hours and driven
less than 1.6 km (1 mile) during that
3 hour period).
Allow the tire to cool before measur-
ing the inflation pressure. Always be
sure the tire is cold before inflating to
the recommended pressure.
A cold tire means the vehicle has
been sitting for 3 hours and driven for
less than 1.6 km (1 mile) in that 3
hour period.
Never use tire sealant if your vehicle
is equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System. The liquid
sealant can damage the tire pres-
sure sensors. The TPMS cannot alert you to
severe and sudden tire damage
caused by external factors such as
nails or road debris.
If you feel any vehicle instability, immediately take your foot off the
accelerator, apply the brakes grad-
ually and with light force, and slow-
ly move to a safe position off the
road.
✽ ✽ NOTICE - Protecting TPMS
Tampering with, modifying, or dis-
abling the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) components may
interfere with the system's ability to
warn the driver of low tire pressure
conditions and/or TPMS malfunc-
tions. Tampering with, modifying,
or disabling the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) compo-
nents may void the warranty for
that portion of the vehicle.
This device complies with
Industry Canada licence-exempt
RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause inter-
ference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired
operation of the device.
